First false alarm!

Spent about an hour today in the hospital makingg sure it was not a broken water and that it was only braxton hicks contractions. I wanna do something special for her so i think massage oil is in order. If it happens she’ll be calm!

Good post

Yeah? Thank you! @zappl lets us give a little zapp about our day rather than a whole big blog perfect for when you dont have time to sit down and write a whole blog. Which i will do when baby is born,but right now i got a couple minutes at most at any given time.

Oh no, I remember those! It's not fair to have something that resembles contractions not be that exact thing!! I hope your were able to help her relax after that ordeal.

My favorite thing about braxton hicks contractions is honestly the name, some guy realizing what was going on putting his name behind a completely woman only experience. But yes, although im usually pretty good at reminding her to stand up and drink water to make sure they arent real contractions. The whole thing is so fast paced and exciting. Having had a child already and really just doing all the proper reading and prep makes the whole thing so scientific and when we can look at it that way it takes the fear out of the experience because everything that happens can be explained. Super easy pregnancy for her so far. She likes to quip that she keeps forgetting shes pregnant, although those remarks stopped at about 36 weeks haha. Could be any day and i cant wait to share this with you all. So awesome!
